Coming Soon to a Theater Near You!

One of the exciting things about Comic-Con are the large events held in the halls showcasing the upcoming Blockbuster films from various studios. Some presentations involve filmmakers (and sometimes the film’s cast), dazzling thousands of hungry fans with visual teases. From production images, sneak-peek footage, behind the scenes features, sizzle reels, and sometimes depending on how ahead of production a film may be by Comic Con, a new trailer is unveiled to the world. Today Walt Disney Studios debuted a more light-hearted classic B-movie style version of it’s upcoming stop motion animated  film Frankenweenie (directed by Tim Burton). We also got our first glimpse at the magically colorful [and heavily CGI filled] world of OZ with the trailer for OZ: The Great and Powerful (directed by Sam Raimi). We’ve got them below for your viewing pleasure…and check back tomorrow to see what other trailers some of the other studios premiere.

OZ: THE GREAT AND POWERFUL (3/8/13) James Franco as the Wizard of OZ! The official trailer for “Oz The Great And Powerful”. A prequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz that tells how the Wizard (James Franco) arrived in Oz became the ruler.

FRANKENWEENIE (10/5/12) In Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie, young Victor conducts a science experiment to bring his beloved dog Sparky back to life, only to face unintended, sometimes monstrous, consequences.
